Episode 45: why do machine learning models fail?

Published: Aug. 28, 2018, 8:02 a.m.

The success of a machine learning model depends on several factors and events. True generalization to data that the model has never seen before is more a chimera than a reality. But under specific conditions a well trained machine learning model can generalize well and perform with testing accuracy that is similar to the one performed during training.\nIn this episode I explain when and why machine learning models fail from training to testing datasets.
